How much of a moron am I - bought a "generic" ipod nano {POLL}

[Captante]

Paid with a credit card? ... Not too bright, but not a complete moron.

Paid via Paypal or some other means? ... Sorry man, but complete moron! 😛

maybe i'm just wrong here, but isn't 1 Gb = 128 MB?

1gb = 1024mb

1GB=1024MB
1Gb=128MB

Byte or bit

Actually 1 GB = 1000MB
and 1Gb = 125 MB

Hrmm could be a clever ploy by the bootleggers to avoid legal action. Is it listed in the auction as "GB" or "Gb"...

wait i am still lost what the hell does generic mean? it either is an ipod nano or it is a ripoff brand

 

[Shawn]

read this guy's negative feedback. he's definitely a dishonest seller. he was originally selling those knockoffs as real ipod nanos.

It's not an Ipod at all. It's a cheap Chinese knock-off by chinese companies that don't respect patents.

It is listed as GB. And he apparently used to sell them as real ipod nanos but then added the "generic" in there. I could be getting shafted here but i won't go away without a major fight on this one.

Thanks professor. I think it was clear from the OP that he knows he's not getting a real iPod, he's getting a knock-off.

 

[Horus]

False advertisment FTW. I'm sure Apple would like to see that's auction for the "4G Nano"

Yes, as mugs stated, I know it's not an official Apple Ipod, but I'm not concerned about name brand. Best case sceario, it looks similar to a Nano and I can drag and drop MP3, vids, pics, etc and it is in fact 4GB. Worst case scerario it's a 128MB wafer o junk.

 

[altonb1]

I think the real question is...does YOUR Knock-off come VIRUS-FREE????

Screw Apple.

HAHA. My sister has the same one. It's amazing that it works but it sucks big balls.

Thats a big help to everyone. Could explane what "sucks big balls" means?

 

[preslove]

You can't get 4 GB of memory for anywhere near that price. I'm sure the cheapest wholesale you could find 4 GBs of flash would be ~$120.

That was my question when I read the title. How do you have a "generic" nano? Does it still have apple written on it, or is it one of those that I saw on ebay a while ago where instead of a wheel, it had 4 cheapo buttons?

 

[Chrono]

Meaning... for $50, don't expect much at all.

Online store that sells the samething??

YES!!! See that's what I'm telling you. Sure they are out there and $50 seems like a steal. But I won it on an auction. So it is possible it is worth more than $50, that's the beauty of being patient on EBAY. Most of them go for $60 or more plus shipping, so like $75. I will report back once I receive this unit.

 

[RaynorWolfcastle]

Well consider that the spot price for 8Gb NAND flash is $15 give or take. So to make a 4 GB player, you need to put in $60 or so of flash memory; I'll let you draw your own conclusion as to what you'll be getting.
